I care about your trust, your inbox, and your experience with my art. This Privacy Policy explains what information I collect, why I collect it, and how it’s used. If anything here ever feels unclear, you’re always welcome to reach out.
What information I collect
I collect only the information needed to send you updates you’ve asked for, complete orders or commissions, or to help you interact with my site. This may include:
– Name (if you choose to share it)
– Email address
– Your interactions with my emails (standard newsletter analytics)
– Messages or form submissions you send through my website
– Basic website usage data (like pages visited, via standard WordPress tools)
I do not collect sensitive personal information.
How your information is collected
Your information is collected when you:
– Sign up for my newsletter
– Submit a form on my website

Newsletter signups are handled through MailPoet, a trusted email service built for WordPress.
How your information is used
I use your information to:
– Send newsletters you signed up for
– Share new artwork, behind‑the‑scenes stories, and event updates
– Provide exclusive content or offers for subscribers
– Improve my website and communication

I do not sell or share your information with advertisers.
Who process your data
To run my website and newsletter, I rely on a few trusted services:
– MailPoet – manages email subscriptions and sends newsletters
– WordPress – hosts and manages the website
– My web hosting provider – stores the website and its data
These services may temporarily store or process your information only as needed to provide their features.
Cookies and tracking
My website uses cookies for:
– Basic site functionality
– Remembering your preferences
– Understanding how visitors use the site
– Managing newsletter popups (so you don’t see them repeatedly)
If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Your rights
You can:
– Unsubscribe from emails at any time (there’s a link in every email)
– Request to see what information I have about you
– Ask me to update or delete your information
Just contact me and I’ll take care of it.
How your information is protected
I take reasonable steps to keep your information safe, including:
– Using secure, reputable services
– Keeping my website software updated
– Limiting access to subscriber data
No system is perfect, but I take privacy seriously.
Changes to this policy
If I update this Privacy Policy, I’ll change the “Last updated” date at the top. Significant changes may also be mentioned in a newsletter.
